Is Your Child Entitled to Free School Meals

Welcome to the School Meals PageCroeso i'r dudalen ciniawau ysgolCardiff Council schools serve a balanced 2 course meal and a cold drink for £2.50 per child per day.

Our menu operates on a three week cycle to ensure that children receive a varied diet, and there is a Halal & vegetarian choice available each day. A link to Cardiff Council's menu can be found below.

Dinner money should be paid on the first day of the school week.

Please place your payment in an envelope clearly marked with your child's name and class, and leave it in the post box in the main school office foyer. You can pay by cash or cheque (made payable to Cardiff City Council, or C.C.C., not to Severn Primary School).

The provision of free school meals is confined to families in receipt of Income Support, Income Related Employment Support Allowance, Income Based Job Seekers Allowance, Guarantee Element of State Pension Credit, Child Tax Credit with an income less than £16,190 (Any Families in receipt of Working Tax Credit do not qualify).

You must apply if you think that your child or children might qualify for free school meals. Application forms can be obtained from the school office, or by contacting Cardiff County Council:

Breakfast has long been recognised as the most important meal of the day and evidence suggests that children who have the opportunity to eat a healthy and nutritious breakfast prior to the start of the school day are more likely to achieve their full potential.

The Welsh Assembly Government Primary School Free Breakfast Initiative gives children in primary schools in Wales the opportunity to have a free, healthy breakfast in school each day. For further information about our Breakfast Club please call into the main school office.
